Pray they aren’t for real

Pray for the members of the President’s newly appointed commission to study intelligence capabilities. They are charged with studying the ways our nation gathers information and how it is used–specifically regarding weapons of mass destruction. Pray for Co-Chairs Charles S. Robb and Laurence H. Silberman and members John McCain, Lloyd Cutler, Richard Levin, Henry S. Rowen, William Studeman, Charles M. Vest and Patricia Wald.

The irony of that statement, of course, is that every one of those men has been praying that there are weapons of mass destruction somewhere in their region of interest. At times like this it seems that prayer is the only thing that can save America’s intelligence gathering community.
